This is the perfect gift!
Last month my kid’s school principal got transferred to a new School.
I have to admit that we were all heart broken and we still are.
That man is a hero!
Anyways, we made for him these cookies, you are going to love the recipe!

Author: Desiree Campbell
Ingredients
- 1 Cup { 2 sticks } butter, softened.
- ¾ Cup Granulated Sugar
- ¾ Cup Packed Brown Sugar
- 1 Tb. Vanilla Extract
- 2 Eggs
- 2¼ Cups Flour
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- ½ tsp. salt
- 1 Box { 3.4 oz } Vanilla Instant Pudding.
- 1 Cup Milk Chocolate Chips
- 20 to 25 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
Instructions
- Preheat your oven at 350ºF.
- Peel and cut the Reese's into fourths. Don't chopped them... You don't want them to fall apart. Tip: As soon as you are done cutting put your Peanut Butter Cups in the freezer and leave them there while you make the rest of the cookies.This will make them firm and they won't melt away when you add them into your dough.
- Beat soft butter, brown and white sugar and vanilla in a large bowl.
- Add the eggs, beat well until creamy.
- Add the rest of your dry ingredients including the instant pudding.
- Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Now it is time to take out those delicious chunks of peanut butter cups and add them to the batter. Stir it gently with a wooden spoon. Don't over do it you want to see and bite into those small chunks later.
- Drop the batter by teaspoons onto a cookie sheet. Bake for 8 minutes. The first batch always takes an extra minute. DO NOT OVERCOOK! Cookies will get harder as they cool down.
- When they are baked remove them from the cookie sheet to a wire rack. Enjoy!
Oh my!…This is the best cookie dough ever!
Don’t over do it you want to see and bite into those small chunks later.
So good!
If you are planning to give them awayput them inside of a glassjar
and I placed a coffee filter between the lid and the ring that goes around it.
Close it and there you have a cute ruffle!
If you feel generous you can put theextraReese’s Peanut Butter Cupsin a smallerjar.
I used a cupcake liner to decorate the lid.
I punched out some hearts and I made this freeprintable for the tag.
You can click here to get your own. I made them in a bunch of colors.
This would make a perfect gift for any peanut butter lover!
Think about Father’s Day, neighbors, or even End of the School Year… you name it.
Easy, tasty, affordable and cute!
That’s what I call delicious!
Happy Day My Friends!
Besos!

Can you use in place of the 1/2 cup of butter, peanut butter?

hi just wondering if I’m supposed to just put the instant vanilla powder in as is or if I’m supposed to make it as per the instructions on the box then mix it in? thanks!
